From the Narrow Straits

The Mystery calls: I am the One who brings you up from the narrow straits.

Make yourself spacious and I will fill you.                             

(Psalm 81:11)

We remind ourselves that with that, with each in breath, we receive the neshmat hayim, the breath of all life. And, with each out breath, we send the breath of all life through us into the world.
